No red in Yellow Pages

Next time the Verizon Yellow Pages is delivered to your door, it will be missing the red section called Community magazine that has maps of the area and profiles of local landmarks along with contact information.

Idearc Media LLC, which publishes the books after acquiring the business from Verizon a few years ago, decided to get rid of the section and focus instead on a new program called SuperGuarantee, that guarantees the services of advertisers in the Yellow Pages and SuperPages.com.

Last year, SuperGuarantee was launched in Syracuse. It will appear in the Capital Region Yellow Pages in January.

"We researched the usage of the Community magazine and found it was not a widely used feature," said Idearc spokeswoman Lisa Vilfordi.

New life for old CVS?

The old CVS drugstore on the corner of Delaware Avenue and Elsemere Avenue has become somewhat of an eyesore, but there are plans to redevelop that site.

A developer has plans to take the site — owned by Delmar resident Luke Mullen — as well as the adjacent Community Care Physicians property to create a larger medical center with its own pharmacy.
